This image was shot at 2400 ASA , no flash. (Kitchen ceiling light only.) Converted into B&W w/ Kubota B&W Black Satin. Normally, I throw in an S curve and sharpen for contrast but with this image no tweaking was needed. I did add a vignette to bring the focus more on him and the ABC's.
Back in the day, I enjoyed printing B&W prints on fiber. Often I long for those days but the chemicals drove me away long before the digital revolution.
